Amy Winehouse (“Days of Wine & Roses”)

By Elvira

Cold.
once a success,
now like stone.
mascara-ed eyes,
tattooed body
voice singing of
pain, angst
shooting star
all the trappings of
stardom,
but as Marilyn Monroe knew
once the audience
leaves — it is yourself:
ALONE.
Everyone loves
a winner —
but they care not for a fragile soul
for you:
the Drugs;
and Wine wins.
